Izzo, who was recently seen in the $131M-plus grossing Amblin feature The House With a Clock in its Walls, and stars next in Quentin Tarantino’s upcoming Once Upon a Time in Hollywood plays Celina, a young Latina whose promising future is cut short with an unexpected pregnancy during the mid 1970s in San Francisco. Against all odds, while working multiple jobs, this young single mother, daughter of South American immigrants, fights the system and becomes a successful landowner. This was during a time when women’s salaries were half of a man’s and single mothers weren’t given loans (which unfortunately remains the same today).

“As a Latina woman going through a transformational process myself, this is an incredibly

FX Networks continues to snap up all marquee movie titles that become available. Over the past six months, the network has acquired such commercial and critical hits as Venom and the Oscar-nominated Bohemian Rhapsody, Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse and Green Book.

FX, whose movie deals also include streaming rights to make the films available on the network’s digital platforms, several years ago pulled away from off-network series, opting to spend the bulk of its acquisition budget on theatrical films instead. With a few rare exceptions, most notably The Big Bang Theory, movies significantly outperform off-network series on basic cable, they have longer shelf lives and deliver a wide range of audiences that can sample new original series launching behind them.

The enchanted adventure tells the spine-tingling tale of Lewis a 10-year-old orphan, who goes to live with his uncle in a creaky old house with a mysterious tick-tocking heart. Lewis soon learns that Uncle Jonathan (Jack Black) and his spirited neighbour, Mrs Zimmerman (Cate Blanchett), are powerful practitioners of the magic arts. When Lewis accidentally awakens the dead, the town’s sleepy facade suddenly springs to life, revealing a secret and dangerous world of witches, warlocks and deadly curses.

The 23rd annual Art Directors Guild Awards took place on Saturday (Feb. 2). These kudos have a stellar record at previewing the winner of the Best Production Design race at the Academy Awards. Over the first 22 years of these prizes, the eventual Oscar champ has always numbered among the Adg nominees in the various genre categories. Fifteen of the Academy Award winners first prevailed with the guild, including the last five in a row.

In a further sign of consolidation in the independent film sector, Universal Pictures International will take over the theatrical marketing and distribution of Entertainment One (eOne) releases in Australia and New Zealand.

There was no immediate indication of layoffs among the eOne team headed by MD Sandie Don. Formerly head of distribution, Don was elevated to MD in November 2017 after Troy Lum stepped up to become executive vice president of international productions.

Lum departed eOne in November to focus on Hopscotch Features, his joint venture with writer John Collee and producer Andrew Mason, and was not replaced.

“Sandie is discussing roles with the team as they prepare for a transition

I thought the whole thing was created using CG animation, but it wasn’t! They actually build a creepy-ass animatronic baby doll with the life-like animatronic head of Jack Black.

A behind-the-scenes video has been released showing off the animatronic doll, and it’s something you might see in a disturbing nightmare. The fact that this thing exists in real life is so weird! But at the same time, it’s impressive work and kinda cool.

It gives me a little more respect for the scene that I hated so much in the movie.

Kids need nightmare fuel too. What happens when gore master Eli Roth directs a scary movie for kids? Well, you end up with last year’s The House with a Clock in Its Walls, which is home to what I recently dubbed Roth’s most unsettling movie moment to date. Long story short, Jack Black’s character gets turned into […]

The House with a Clock in Its Walls came and went last year without a lot of pomp and circumstance. But we’re not sure how a movie directed by Eli Roth that features a horrifying animatronic baby with the bearded adult head of Jack Black didn’t spark a larger discussion about deepest, darkest nightmares come […]

On Jan. 7, the Art Directors Guild announced the nominees for their 23rd annual awards, which will be handed out on Feb. 2. These kudos have a stellar record at previewing the Academy Awards. Over the first 22 years of these prizes, the eventual Oscar winner for Best Production Design has always numbered among the Adg nominees in the various categories. The Adg winners will be revealed on Feb. 2, 10 days before final voting for the Oscars begins.

Previously announced, “Mary Poppins Returns” director Rob Marshall will receive the Adg’s cinematic imagery award.

Lifetime achievement awards will also be presented to production designer Jeannine Oppewall, senior illustrator and production designer Ed Verreaux,

Lewis Barnavelt, after losing his parents, is sent to Michigan to live with his uncle Jonathan. He discovers his uncle is a warlock, and enters a world of magic and sorcery. But this power is not limited to good people: Lewis learns of Isaac Izard, an evil wizard who constructed a magical clock with black magic, as long as it exists it will keep ticking, counting down to doomsday. He died before he could finish the clock, but he hid the clock in his house, where Uncle Jonathan now lives. Now Lewis and Jonathan must find the clock before it finishes its countdown and ends the world.

After the modest results of his 2017 drama “Last Flag Flying,” Richard Linklater is set to return in a big way next year with none other than Cate Blanchett. The two have teamed up for an adaptation of Maria Semple’s 2012 novel “Where’d You, Bernadette.” Both Linklater and Blanchett have been attached to the film since November 2015, which makes next year’s release from Annapurna Pictures a long time coming for the mystery comedy.

Greetings, everyone! Welcome to what is the final Blu-ray and DVD recap of 2018, as it seems like we have no major genre home media releases coming home next week on Christmas. That being said, the year is ending on a strong note, as we have a number of essential titles hitting various formats this Tuesday.

The project is based on a Daniel Riley GQ Magazine article published this year about Artur Samarin, a young Ukranian man who posed as a teenager so he could be adopted by a childless couple in a small Pennsylvania town and became the top student in his high school. Saramin was five years older than he claimed. His adopted parents turned him into the authorities.

Last September horror director Eli Roth delivered his first children’s movie with The House With A Clock In Its Walls, which despite being aimed at kids was surprisingly freaky in parts. The creepiest element by far was Kyle MacLachlan’s villainous character – Isaac Izzard – who is brought back from the dead and seeks out his revenge in the final act. The…
